Yuwenlei followed Yuxian Zhenren slowly across the Wujiang Bridge, although it was dusk at this time, but the river was still full of wind and clouds, sails and masts, and all kinds of boats came and went a busy scene.

Suddenly, the river wind suddenly rose, blowing the robes of the two of them hunting. Yuxian Zhenren saw that there were more and more pedestrians at the gate of the city, so he said: "Apprentice, if you want to know the strange things and customs on the Central Continent, the master will find a leisure time to explain it to you in detail another day, but it is not early today, let's find your senior sister as soon as possible, so that we can hurry to Yu Yuanhai." ”

Yu Wenlei said respectfully: "The apprentice understands, then wait until he is busy with the business in front of him, and then ask Master about the mountains and rivers on this continent, geography and hydrology." To tell the truth, the apprentice has lived in the mountains since he was a child, has never seen the world, and his vision is too narrow, so I hope that the master can give more guidance in the future. ”

Yuxian Zhenren said with a smile: "Read thousands of books, travel thousands of miles, and if you have the opportunity in the future, Master will take you out for a journey and increase some knowledge." After speaking, he led Yu Wenlei into the city from the side gate of the city tower, and went straight along the street without stopping to pass the city.

Thousands of lights have already been lit up on both sides of the street, and the firelight flickers up and down in the breeze. The streets are full of traffic, the crowd of people coming and going in all directions is like a tide, and all kinds of shouts and shouts are coming and going. Seeing that it was so lively and prosperous, people came and went, and Yu Wenlei, who was looking at it for a while, was dizzying.

Seeing this, Yuxian Zhenren pulled Yu Wenlei's sleeve and reminded him: "But you have to follow a good teacher, don't get lost." ”

Yu Wenlei followed Yuxian Zhenren and asked loudly: "Master, I don't know which inn my sister has settled in the city, but you have made an appointment with her, otherwise if we look for each inn one by one, it is estimated that we may not be able to find it even if we find the third watch." ”

Yuxian Zhenren didn't care about not answering, grabbed Yu Wenlei's sleeve and turned around into a relatively secluded alley, he reached out and took out half a piece of rune paper from his sleeve, and then whispered a few words to the rune paper, and then threw it into the air, and the rune paper turned into a puff of green smoke in the blink of an eye.

Yu Wenlei knew that this was the transmission note, and knew that the master was performing a spell to contact his senior sister Zhao Lingwei, and he couldn't help but feel relieved in his heart and calmed down.

When Master finished performing the spell, he stepped forward and asked, "Master, where is Senior Sister now, should we wait for her here or go over to her?"

Yuxian is truly humane: "The northwest corner of this city is the temple of the city lord of Jinwu Mansion, which is full of the spiritual seats of the city lords and ancestors of the past dynasties, I have made an appointment with Wei'er to meet there, let's rush over as soon as possible." With that, he pulled his leg and walked away.

Yu Wenlei followed behind and said secretly: Master has been dealing with skeletons all his life, so he naturally feels that the cemetery mausoleum and family temple ancestral hall are more familiar, so even if he agrees on a place with others, it is also in line with his habits.

Who knew that Yuxian Zhenren had just taken two steps, suddenly turned around, looked at Yu Wenlei and said, "Apprentice, as a teacher, I suddenly remembered something." ”

Yu Wenlei hurriedly stopped his stump and said in shock, "Master, what's wrong?"

Yuxian is truly humane: "Your Chongyang Temple is the guardian of this Jinwu Mansion, and there must be many Guanzhongmen people stationed here in the city all year round." ”

Yu Wenlei replied with a bow: "My fifth senior brother Luan is responsible for leading and guarding the inner mansion of Jinwu City, and the guardianship of the outer city is handed over to the four generations of disciples of Chongyang Guan and low-level lay disciples. Since entering the Chongyang Concept, the disciples still know some about them. But I don't know why Master suddenly asked this question?"

Yuxian Zhenren smiled when he heard this: "I don't know, although the four of us went to Yu Yuanhai this time is not a confidential news, but as a teacher, I still hope that the fewer people who know, the better, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble."

Besides, although you have now entered our door, most of the disciples of Chongyang Guan still don't know about it, and it is not appropriate for your senior brothers and nephews to see you walking together as a teacher.

As soon as Yuxian's voice fell, he suddenly shot out like the wind, and like a fierce arrow, he used the object in his hand towards Yuwenlei as a hood.

Yuwenlei was caught off guard, and in shock, he straightened his chest and bowed his legs back, but how could he be faster than Yuxian Zhenren's surprise, and he was being tightly encased by the thing in the real person's hand.

Yu Wenlei only felt that his eyes were dark, and he subconsciously wanted to reach out and take off the things on his head, only to hear Yuxian Zhenren whisper: "Don't move!" At the same time, he stretched out two fingers and pressed them in front of Yu Wenlei's forehead, and then shouted with words in his mouth: "Change!"

Yu Wenlei only felt a flower in front of him, and then saw the light again, he touched his head with his hand in a daze, but he didn't feel anything unusual. So he asked, "Master, what did you just put on the disciple's head, so that I couldn't see anything, but fortunately I took it, otherwise the disciple would really be blind." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, he couldn't help but be horrified and trembling: this voice clearly came from his own mouth, but it sounded so old and heavy, very different from his usual clear voice.

Yuxian Zhenren saw his stunned expression, and walked forward with a smile and said: "Don't be afraid, I just used the secret technique of our Wanshou Palace for the teacher, cough, cough, the technique of calling the head can be regenerated by the skeleton on your head, and your current appearance is the appearance of the skeleton before its death, I don't believe you can understand it with your own eyes." After speaking, he took out a polished bone mirror from the ten thousand skulls and handed it to Yu Wenlei.

Yu Wenlei was suspicious, stretched out his head and looked into the mirror by the light in the distance, only to see an old face full of wrinkles faintly reflected in the mirror, and that face was more than a few points older and decrepit than Yuxian Zhenren.

Yu Wenlei couldn't help but be curious, reached out and touched his cheek, only to see that the old man in the mirror was the same, making exactly the same movements as him, and it was the same, Yu Wenlei was stunned when he saw this scene.

In the midst of the chaos in the city, I saw two elderly Taoists in a hurry walking through the streets and alleys, one after the other, these two people were Yuxian Zhenren and Yuwenlei master and apprentice.

Yu Wenlei followed closely behind the master, and as he walked, he carefully recalled what the master had just said: "This skeleton technique is different from the ordinary transformation technique, and it is not an illusion technique, but it temporarily replaces the object of the skeleton's performance before its death, and it is said that it also has a certain chance to awaken the memory of the deceased attached to the skeleton and the technique that the deceased will use before his death." ”

Yuxian Zhenren's original intention of developing this technique was originally to use it to find the ancient secret art that had been lost in the long river of time, but even though he had rummaged through the corpse mountains and the sea of blood, accumulated white bones, and collected countless skulls, he still found nothing, so in frustration, he changed this technique to the transformation technique.

The master and apprentice performed the technique of moving and lifting the longitudinal technique, and walked to avoid the crowd, and within a quarter of an hour they arrived at an inaccessible corner of the city.

Standing under the starry sky, Yu Wenlei looked at the past from a distance, a large area of black and oppressive buildings stood in front of him, and the huge tree trunks and branches sticking out from the courtyard were staggered and twisted into arches in mid-air, which was particularly eerie in the mist, and it also confirmed that this house seemed to have a lot of age.

Yuxian Zhenren stopped, turned his head and said to Yu Wenlei: "Apprentice, this is the temple of the Jinwu City Lord, this place is a three-entry hall, with two wings and two compartments, covering a huge area. The gate of the front hall is guarded by your Chongyangguan disciples day and night, let's go to the back, you have to follow. Without saying a word, he turned around the wall and walked towards the apse.

Yu Wenlei did as he said, and the two of them cautiously walked around to the corner of the back wall, and were just about to turn over and jump into the courtyard, when they suddenly heard the sound of a bang and a fight from inside, and it was faintly accompanied by the scolding of "Catch them, don't let the two demon girls run away".

Yuxian Zhenren was shocked, glanced at Yu Wenlei, and muttered to himself in a low voice: "Could it be that this girl Wei'er is causing trouble again, let's go in and take a look!"

Yu Wenlei was also curious, and said secretly: "Listen to how familiar this voice is, it seems to have often sounded in my ears, I will also go up and take a look." After thinking about it, he jumped up the wall with him, stretched out his hand to pick up the branches and leaves, and looked into the courtyard.

I saw that the courtyard was brightly lit, shining as if it was daytime, and more than a dozen Chongyang Guan disciples surrounded the two purple-shirted women, and the two sides were fighting together.

Yu Wenlei looked at the past, and it was his ninety-ninth senior brother Lu Yan who was the leader among the disciples of the Chongyang Temple, and the two purple-clothed women were in their prime, although they could barely be regarded as middle-class, but their appearance was inferior to Zhao Lingwei and Dongfang Miao after all, not the two of them.

Lu Yan was originally a close disciple of the fifth master, Yu Wenlei and him are not much different in age, they have similar interests, and they have a good personal relationship. I saw him standing in the middle of the field, while commanding his subordinate disciples to besiege the two purple-clothed women, he couldn't stop shouting: "Demon girl, if you don't put down your weapons, you can capture them quickly, just because you two still want to escape from the net of heaven and earth of my Chongyang Temple!"

Yu Wenlei secretly said in his heart: Since it is a matter of my Chongyang view, as a third-generation disciple, I must show up to help him. Thinking of this, he wanted to jump into the courtyard and arrest the "demon girl" called by Lu Yan with his fellow disciples.

Who knew that his body had just moved, but Yuxian Zhenren held him down and said in a low voice: "Don't be reckless, let's take a look at the situation first!

Yu Wenlei was stunned inexplicably, turned his head and asked Yuxian Zhenren: "Master said that these two women are the disciples of the Imperial Immortal Sect?" But in the past year, the disciple has also seen many masters of the Imperial Immortal Sect, not only beggars, but also dwarfs, and even ......."

Speaking of this, he suddenly remembered the agreement with the person in the bag that day, and swore that he would never reveal half of her information to others, so he turned to say: "There is even a white-haired old ghost named Jin Yan, their costumes are all strange costumes, extremely exaggerated and alternative, and they are by no means such a middle-earth appearance. ”

Yuxian Zhenren replied lightly: "The Imperial Immortal Sect is the number one holy sect in southern Xinjiang, and the sect is afraid that there are more than tens of thousands of people, and it is not less than ten thousand miles away from here. Although the way of cultivating immortals is the same way, after all, the customs and customs are still very different from ours.

But don't you know, the reason why the Imperial Immortal Sect can flourish in the barren southern Xinjiang is because of the absorption and naturalization of the immortal cultivation sects in various places. And these two women are the servants of the right protector of the Imperial Immortal Sect. ”

"Right Protector Phantom Miao?" Yu Wenlei said, "I once heard the Second Master Uncle's mention of this person, saying that the two great protectors of the Imperial Immortal Sect are Moro and Phantom Miao. I have also seen the power of the Moro boy more than once, since these two are the subordinates of the Phantom Miao Protector, it must not be bad to stretch out my hand, then I should go to help the senior brother. After saying that, he got up and wanted to jump.

Seeing that he didn't have time to stop him, Yuxian Zhenren hurriedly stretched out his right hand, put his index finger and middle finger together, and pressed the remaining three fingers together to stand in front of his chest, and shouted in a low voice: "Ding!" Yu Wenlei suddenly stood in place, unable to move a single bit.

Yu Wenlei seemed to have roots under his feet, even if he had the strength to make it out, he was in a cold sweat, and he could only whisper: "Master, somehow what's going on, I suddenly can't move, come and help me!"

Yuxian Zhenren stood up gently, supported him, leaned on the back of a branch, and said with a chuckle: "Apprentice, you are in a hurry, because the teacher is afraid that you will go down and make a mistake, so I have to temporarily use magic to trap you." Don't be afraid, it won't take long for it to unravel itself. After speaking, he continued to look through the branches, and his face gradually became solemn.
